I performed Linux hardening and Incident Response for UCF's B-team at the annual DOE CyberForce competition. Our tasks were to lock-down half of our machines and leave the rest open to attack, and to document all attempts to compromise. Our hardened machines were never compromsied while our open systems were extensively monitored and documented.
